1st Annual BST FEST! BUY SELL TRADE!!

Monday, June 28, 2010
11:00-3:00

You bring it someone else takes it away!
Sound good? Have stuff you want to have OUT of your house or out of your sight??? I know I DO!!!

So lets trade, or gimme your best offer, or forgoodnesssakes please just take it away!!!

SPACE FEE: around eight bucks per family or 2 bucks per person. BUT, No one would be turned away on financial basis.

We might also have a low key bake sale table with some goodies to help us all keep up the rag-picker stamina!! All proceeds would go to the ROC. If anyone is interested in that let me know. That could be a different good way to cover the cost of the space donation.

What the Heck?: bring your no longer needed clothes, books, “school books”, home items, small appliances. Fabric, yarn, Anything you once found usefull, or thought you’d find useful but never got around to, outgrown but still in nice condition, sports equipment, (baseball bats too small for your kid, ice/roller skates, etc. etc.)

PS not a great time ?. We can tweek. Or if there is some major multi-family involved shindig that day that would preclude many who would want to from attending. Let me know.

Swap & Share Series
(check calendar!!!)

Pot Luck and Swap. Let's enjoy sit down meals as a community, bring a dish to share, or contribute to take out - so much affordable yummy food steps from our door! Also, clear your cabinets and closets and bring your stuff that you are finished with for swapping - books, curriculum, toys, clothes, shoes, kitchenware, appliances, supplies, etc.! - maybe someone else can use it. Anything unclaimed at the end of the evening will be donated to charity, so get your community service in while you commune with your homeschooling community!

FRIDAY NIGHT FUNdraisers!

Inspired by Leslie's Family Card's Night, which was inspired by Janet's Girl's Night, last week was Family Movie Night!

Inspired by Janet F's idea of a "girl's night out" poker fundraiser for the ROC, we've decided to have "Friday Night Rent Parties for the ROC"!!! Every Friday evening we will get together for fun, snacks, community and support for our center. Some nights will be devoted to families and some will be just for adults. We are starting off this Friday March 5th with a family cards night. We'll play Go Fish, Hearts, Spades, War, Spit, Spoons and whatever other card games folks want to play. Everyone is welcome from 6:00 pm till whenever. The suggested contribution for family card night is $20 per family. No one will be turned away for being broke. Each family should bring a snack to share, and a $1 per family for paper goods.

Next Friday is open to someone else to organize -- suggestions include karaoke, charades, or something else entirely different! Bring your ideas!

Let's keep it going forward, passing around the planning baton - there's so many Friday Night themes to explore!
